Editing Yerachmiel Benyaminson (section)

== The Rabbinate in Zlobin ==
For a short period, he served as Rabbi of Schedrin.

In 1927, Rabbi Yerachmiel - who was already married - was offered to serve as Rabbi of Zlobin, replacing Rabbi Moshe Axelrod who moved to serve as Rabbi in the city of Suraz.

Rabbi Yerachmiel asked the Rebbe Rayatz's opinion regarding the proposed appointment, and received agreement and blessing and congratulations regarding his new position (Igrot Kodesh Vol. 1 p. 562).

The appreciation of all community members from young to old for the new Rabbi was very great. The Rabbi's gentle personality, together with his firmness in matters of Judaism, his genuine love for fellow Jews and his genius in Torah subjects - all combined into a Chassidic figure who influenced goodness and kindness upon the city's residents, and the Zlobin community merited in these troubled times to have a Rabbi of stature who would lead them fearlessly through the raging waters.
